The President of the United States is holding an impromptu press conference with the Fed Chairman and surprising him with negative data of more was...
This is a great piece of video history I would say. An exchange between Trump and Powell. Trump complaining that the costs of some buildings at the FED have increased, asking Powell if they expect more and then...
Powell: "Don't expect them (more costs), we're ready for them. We have a little bit of a reserve that we may use."
This is such a symbolic exchange. "We have a little bit of a reserve that we may use" is the understatement of history. ahah
Central bankers are incredible!

In my opinion UBI basically eradicates the only weapon socialist, social democrats have, the directed printer. UBI makes the printer available **equally** to everyone.
Imagine a UBI that replaces all welfare programs, healthcare, education. Just one single UBI, taken from taxes or from printing, and the free market creating everything else, education, healthcare, etc.
Big capital would benefit from this system immensely because capital would trickle up inevitably AND they would have a much more predictable demand-side estimations, allowing for more stable and long-term investments.
I think billionaires/millionaires would be happy to contribute towards a UBI because of that, because it's very precise demand economics, providing economic demand stability AND of course the direct influence in millions of people's well being.
Everybody wins with this. It brings stability to a completely economically broken world.

I think it's inevitable that RN, Rassemblement National and AFD, win in France and Germany.
The situation is going to so shitty then even immigrants will vote right wing. And the immigrants are the only ones that can shift the vote.

This system has created the most useless, resentful, frustrated society of all times.
It's no wonder everything is falling apart.

What we need at least 10x more countries. So instead of 193 there should be 2000 countries in the world.
That would make the world a better place. A lot of us would have a home for sure.

This is true.
The big difference is that we won't inflate the real estate market by adding an extra premium from using houses as investments.
Instead, we'll foster a more free-market-oriented world by monetizing an unconfiscatable global asset.
We'll leave a better world, basically. We will pass on wealth AND a much freer, more efficient, better world, with more opportunities for all.
House prices are a HUGE economic bottleneck and inefficiency!!

Great insight:
Depression is an inability to express oneself.
So in other words you're not depressed because the world or your life is the way it is, you're depressed because you haven't found a channel to express yourself in the universe. Thus you're depressed/suppressed. The world really is suppressed.
This is a fundamental insight that I got from Gabor Mate (I'm not sure if it comes from him or not).

Remember, the fiat economy doesn't reach everywhere. We can build on the edges and generate a lot of value for a lot of people.

Adopting Bitcoin is, for the first time, having access to the tools of the wealthy at a very small scale.
Hard asset appreciation while simultaneously having substantial liquidity was a thing of wealthy people. Only at that level could you benefit from hard asset appreciation (plenty of highly appreciating real estate, businesses, etc) while being able to access some of that liquidity (sell just one or two houses, etc). Now it's available to everybody.

Bitcoin is exploding again!
What if Bitcoin is truly the radical (monetary) reset we're all looking for?
I mean, we all talk about it, but what if the world is really starting to understand that **governments need to be demonetized** and that Bitcoin is the best way to do it?

What about an Uber for Bitcoiners and Nostr people?
Paying with Bitcoin, LN, etc, Nostr for reviews.
Wouldn't that be awesome?

We already have hyperinflation in the West. It's houses doubling every 10 years and salaries not.

Gold’s market cap was $1T in 2001. Today, it’s around $23.5T.
The idea of gold as a store of value is also a relatively recent social, philosophical, and economic reconstruction. In 2001, almost no one saw gold this way. That perception, in any truly tangible economic form, is only about 25 years old.
Yes, gold served as a store of value in the past — but for decades, no one cared. It was seen as a dead rock, useless, obsolete.
The romantic notion that "gold bugs" were heroic defenders of hard money and foresaw everything is a myth. Sure, a few individuals fit that role but most people didn't care about gold.
And people think this can’t happen with Bitcoin? Especially when Bitcoin has more utility?

Bitcoin is a tool for freedom. But not freedom in itself.
It's just a sword. You are the one who holds the sword.
We need to enact our virtue in the world. That's how one makes the world freer and more just. Use the sword. And do it wisely.

I've been seeing some rumours of a gold-backed BRICS settlement system coming up. Powered by China with gold vaults around BRICS countries as an attempt to settle in gold.
Some people might trust this but it's not going to be easy to force all individuals in this direction.
